Whatever calibre is it that you think a Win 70 can be chambered for which makes it anywhere near the ballistic equivalent of a .50BMG SLAP round?

I don't remember the wiki is all screwed up for it to. There was a stat sheet for the ammo somewhere online . When i find them again ill let you know. Its not quite like Lapua rounds i think.

 

I think its called ].300 Match Grade WinMag

 

Not sure if that round was for punching power though might have been for distance. Ah now i remember i used it for distance my bad.

Yea the. 300 win mag is nowhere near as powerful as a 50 cal round.

However it does have more legs than the standard hunting and sniper rifles you typically see in games in.308.

As for wanting to see dmrs and 50 cals wait for mods. Having these military weapons could potentially spoil the setting and aesthetic the dev team has envisioned.

Pretty much such weapons prolly would not gel with the rest.
